Jane took time to listen to our situation, gave unbiased advice. Completed all aspects, making it as simple as possible. We were very unsure of the process, before we chatted to Jane, after, we felt very comfortable with the outcome and our minds have been put at rest. First class service.

I have needed to chat a couple of matters through with Jane in the past and she's always been incredibly accommodating and genuinely helpful. I would highly recommend her services for all things Wills and Probate.

There are very few people like Jane Cassell, she is relentless in providing a professional, swift and heart focussed service. Jane is living her values in her business every day and I recommend her to everyone who needs a hand doing the harder stuff in life around wills/probate.

I used this type of services first time. An acquaintance recommended JC Independent Wills & Probate Ltd, and I couldn't get more professional and attentive support that I received from Jane Cassell. She guided me through the whole process, and I was happy with the result. It was essential to understand various specifics of my situation, and Jane gave me clear and reliable advice. I would recommend JC Independent Wills & Probate Ltd to anyone who wants personalised approach, and guaranteed result.

We had our Power of Attorneys prepared by Jane Cassell and were very impressed by her professional & friendly manner and her ability to make us feel completely at ease.Because of the positive experience we had with drawing up our POAS, when it was time for us to update our Wills, there was only one person we wanted to prepare them for us & that was Jane. She has the ability to explain things fully in a manner we could both understand & expertly guided us through what some people may feel is a difficult process.We would have no hesitation in recommending Jane to our friends and family.

Myself and my husband recently asked Jane to help us arrange our Wills and Lasting Powers of Attorney, and I couldn't recommend her highly enough. A friend recommended Jane to us as this was something we had been wanting to do for a long time but couldn't get round to organising - plus it was something we were putting off, if we are honest. I first spoke to Jane on the phone for initial guidance and then we had a Skype meeting to go through the details. She was kind, patient and really helpful, making suggestions for things we hadn't even thought about. Jane took into account our personal circumstances with great care and understanding. She was then extremely efficient in getting our documents back to us for signing, even though it was during the run-up to Christmas. We had once thought of trying to organise our Wills ourselves, or just popping along to a local solicitors, and we're so glad that we asked Jane instead. It's an incredibly sensitive, personal and thought-provoking process, and Jane made it simple and wonderfully considered for us. I have since recommended her services to two friends and I don't doubt that she will provide them with the professional, compassionate service that she has shown us. Many, many thanks.
